People4business.com has launched an e-bay style ratings system for its freelancers and contractors.

The system will help buyers shortlist potential candidates and for freelancers it provides a way of marketing their skills.

“This is all about confidence and transparency. Our ratings system uses feedback from previous customers to build a clear picture of the performance of individual professionals. Feedback is verified directly with buyers, so there is complete trust in the system among both buyers and sellers services,” explains managing director Duncan Taylor.
